Maybe get a kit made for a ford ranger (same bolt pattern) and then modify the flare fenders to fit the to the Cherokee, never have seen one on an Xj but I've seen Chevy suburban with them like on trailer towing packages.

Check JC Whitney, if they have a kit for a Comanche then your all set

You would have to do it on a 2 door Cherokee, I don't think you could modify the flares around the rear doors on a 4 door

I think it's a cool idea, but I think outside the box.

Ya you could just cut the flair where it meets the door and brace it with some metal and youd be set to go

Don't do meth, you might accidentally turn your XJ into that.

I like the look of the dually set up but hate how that one was done
